White Cottage - Quaint & cosy railway cottage just a stone's throw from beach


A big warm welcome to White Cottage which I have lovingly restored and extended to make what I think is a wonderful cosy home, which I hope you will really enjoy. I have kept as many of the original features as possible, so you may notice a few little quirky anomalies – I just love them 😊. I still have a bit left to do, but all in good time!

White Cottage is a former railway cottage, located on the stunning Co Down coast, just a stone's throw from the beach and only a 10 to 15 minute walk along the coastal path to Holywood town. The huge advantage is that we are next to a railway halt with excellent train links to Bangor, Belfast and beyond. It is a very quiet line with little or no disturbance. White Cottage really is an ideal location for both business and pleasure.

With wonderful sunsets from the decking area, perfect for a cocktail or two and a good sized garden for children and pets, the south facing garden really is a fabulous spot. There is a stunning kitchen leading onto a dining area with a couple of steps up to a huge sitting room with a sumptuously cosy wood burning stove. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, one with en-suite bath/shower and a luxurious family bathroom with a large free standing bath and walk-in shower. There is also a cloakroom with a separate toilet downstairs.

You will have use of the whole place, apart from one room, which is kept under lock and key for all my bits!!, but the rest of the house is perfect for friendly and respectful friends and families who wish to explore the beautiful Co Down coast.

Two minutes walk from my house, you can take a train to Sydenham within close proximity to George Best Belfast City Airport and the Titanic Quarter, also Belfast City Centre with its easy and frequent connections to Belfast International Airport and the stunning Antrim coast. Here you will find the Giant’s Causeway, a World Heritage Site and the world famous golf course, Royal Portrush, host to the 2019 Open Championship.

Just one stop in the other direction is the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, where you can spend a day or two exploring and be taken back in time.

With my business head on (owner of a Catering & Events Company) and when Covid 19 restrictions have eased, I am more than happy to arrange small gatherings at the house. Might it be drinks and canapés on the balcony enjoying the fantastic sunsets, a private dinner party or a chilled-out BBQ in the garden enjoying the fire pit, you can sit back and relax, knowing that your event is being managed by me, allowing you to enjoy your evening and your guests without the added hassle of ensuring that your guests glasses are topped up 😊.

I do hope that you have a lovely stay at White Cottage and any feedback you wish to make would be greatly appreciated. There is a guest/visitor book at the house should you choose to write about your stay. If you are happy with your stay/experience, the best form of advertising is by word of mouth, so please feel free to spread the word.

Fantastic property in great location close to Belfast

Cultra is a quiet village situated on the southern side of Belfast Lough only 10 mins drive away from Belfast City Airport. The property itself is very neat, comfortable and well equipped with a hypermarket only 5 mins away (by car) and a local supermarket within easy walking distance. A great place to stay, offering easy access to Belfast and beyond (by car or train). We would most certainly stay here again !

Perfect spot

A-J couldn’t have been more accommodating, and she has thought of everything! Down to a bottle of bubbly waiting for us when we arrived. Morning walk down on the beach, coffee on the deck, cozy vibes, comfy beds. Can’t say enough.

Outstanding Experience

I cannot speaking highly enough about this property. Everything was absolutely beautiful and perfect! Further, the owners went way above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing less than spectacular! They even arranged a private chef and music entertainment for us one night and were available at all times. If you are in the area, this should be your #1 choice to stay!

Wonderful home in a beautiful area

We recently stayed at White Cottage for a week, while we visited family in the area. I cannot begin to describe how lovely this home is. A-J has provided everything you could possible need in terms of comfort, cleanliness, kitchen ware, etc. Excellent communication before and during our stay. This home truly feels like home away from home. The area is lovely - we took advantage of the proximity to the lovely Cultra coastline and enjoyed lovely walks along the shoreline and into nearby Holywood. Thank you A-J! We really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!

A Great Atmosphere.

A-J and Colin are immensely thoughtful people. We were able to have a last minute reservation for our daughter's party and we were welcomed into the home to towering balloons, well wishing banner and a'yes' to our RSVP. The home was filled with friends and we counted A-J and Colin, along with his daughter, as three of them. The cottage is meticulously maintained, fresh and airy. New landscaping with flowering shrubbery made for a delightful cuppa on the deck, alone, after a full day of festivities, to reflect. The apple-laden tree was a picture. We have our puppy, who could easily wreak havoc, but they love dogs, and ours is no exception, so I am not nervous when managing his puppydom. The beds are a dream, the towels large and soft, thick robes and slippers--a virtual spa feeling. Each room is well-tended and beautifully decorated and solid windows (never felt Storm Betty batting about the night of our stay) and thick doors, so I never worry waking anyone with my early rise. The deep baths are a dream and colored bath bombs, without the perfume, make them magical. One of our guests, a 13yo, said in a email, in regard to the party, "there was a great atmosphere." Yes, that is how White Cottage can be summed up. A big recommend to all.

The most amazing property

We used the property as a base for our wedding party for our wedding in the nearby Cultra Manor. It was perfect - the layout is so social and comfortable with an amazing garden. The property was spotless and so well equipped. The hosts were very helpful throughout. We can’t recommend it enough.

Holywood USA has nothing on White Cottage

Originally from Bangor I wanted to bring my English in-laws to the country I was brought up in. White Cottage was just the perfect backdrop to a lovely holiday where both strands of my family could meet. The location was idyllic, the house so tastefully decorated and incredibly comfortable. We love cooking and everything was perfectly set up for that. We brought our dogs and they enjoyed the beautiful garden and the treats! I would highly recommend this property, it is simply stunning.

This property is even more beautiful in person-every design detail and amenity has been thoughtfully considered. The inside is stunning and the outside deck, patio and garden were perfect for relaxing after a day in Belfast or spent walking along the sea. Highly recommend!

A Country Dream in the City!

White Cottage is simply exceptional. We spent three weeks in every country of the UK with three generations of my family (age 8 months to 70 years), and I can say not only was White Cottage the best of the many great holiday homes we chose, it was a destination unto itself. Our matriarch, who was traveling out of the country for the first time, put it best when she said, “Just being in a beautiful country cottage in Ireland is a dream come true.” The cottage had plenty of room for our party of 6, and it was spotless and massively appointed. A-J owns a catering business, so her kitchen is a chef’s dream, with appliances and spices galore. She even had champagne waiting for our arrival and a crib + toys for our little ones set up and ready! Not only are all the spaces perfect — including the massive, dreamy backyard — all the small decorative touches truly do give it a country feel in the middle of the city. Being a one-minute walk to the train station truly opens up the entire country, as well. You’re 20 minutes from Bangor, 15 from the city, and a couple hours from the Portrush and Giants Causeway. You’d be hard pressed to find a better home base or better value for your money in Northern Ireland. Cheers, A-J!

Lovely cottage

Beautifully presented cottage, everyone who came in remarked at how lovely the property is. Location is excellent - walks along the seafront or into Holywood right at hand. Proximity to the train line is also a boon. The owner is very responsive and friendly. The cottage is well stocked with almost everything you might need. For a longer stay you might need to top up the shampoo. Shower gel or soap might also be needed.

Did not want to leave.

A-J and Colin are two of the most hospitable hosts and kindest of people -- when you need them for anything, they are immediately available. When you need to feel as though you are in your own home and on your own schedule without interruption, the experience is lived. Our two months here flew by and it was really hard to not believe we were at home the whole time. A-J's design eye and expertise in what is comfortable is A1. The beds are Glorious, the towels so large and soft, the sheets are clouds-soft. The heating system is so quiet and extremely efficient. We were not wanting for anything. Colin was always available to answer questions or solve an issue (where's a good pizza place?). Highly recommend!

A house fit for a wedding!

Our daughter was getting married in Belfast, we wanted a property close to her home, where friends and family could gather over the wedding week, where my daughter and the bridesmaids could prepare on the wedding morning and we could have a relaxing time. The Cottage is most generously resourced with everything you could ever want, full of home comforts and practical equipment.. it was amazing. The outdoor deck with its stunning views was a great place to relax. AJ is the perfect host, excellent communication and support and really helpful in every way. I really cannot rate this property highly enough.. you will be lucky to book the Cottage.

Do not hesitate to book this property, the house is amazing and almost better than a five-star hotel, the proximity to the train station is ideal and makes it so easy to head into Belfast if that is your plan. If and when we come back we will absolutely stay here again we were so sad to leave.

What an excellent home

A-J's house is a wonderful place to stay. It has clearly had a huge amount of money spent on it to bring the accommodation up to an exceptionally high standard. No corners have been cut and everything that you might require is there. A-J is also an excellent host, very communicative and keen to ensure that you have nothing but a great stay. I would definitely recommend White Cottage and A-J and would have no hesitation staying there again if we found ourselves in Belfast.
